9:17

When the curve of the coffee stains was exactly the same as ten years ago, and when the fried eggs every morning tasted like copy and paste, Lin Su began to wonder: Is time just a carefully designed cycle? He doesn't know that he has already been carved into the "time string" of the universe - as the "anchor person", he must protect the stability of the time string with 170% of his strong love during the first encounter with the "timekeeper" at 9:17 in every life. From the first meeting in the rain under the old locust tree in 1915 to the passing of hot cocoa in the cafe in 2045, in the seventeenth reincarnation, Su Wan, Cheng Wan, Wan Wan... Timekeepers with different names always appeared at 9:17, wearing foxtails in their hair and wearing a silver bracelet with the word "Wate" engraved on their wrists. They handed over a book, a candy and a cup of hot drink at the same temperature, repeating the agreement of "counting 17 heartbeats". Until the "time eclipse" comes - this black fog that swallows love and memory stares at the source of all reincarnations, "Number 17". When Su Yuebai's cheongsam, Lin Zhao's roasted sweet potatoes, and Su Wan's "Order of Time" blurred one by one, Lin Su and Wan Wan broke into the origin of time and finally revealed the ultimate secret of the universe: love is not a prisoner of time, but the source of time itself. The first ray of consciousness when the universe was born was "I want to love you"; all reincarnations are just thousands of echoes of this ray of consciousness in the long river of time. Meeting in seventeen lives, guarding seventeen times, it turns out that the most romantic eternity is falling in love with you again in every life - in the first encounter at 9:17, under the wisteria of the old locust tree, in the light of the string of time, I said: "This time I will count my heartbeats, and I will kiss you first after counting to the 18th time."
